v1.18.0
8c7640aa · ·v1.18.0: Varis zos Galvus The big ticket feature in this release is [CEL expression matching support](https://anubis.techaro.lol/docs/admin/configuration/expressions). This allows you to tailor your approach for the individual services you are protecting. These can be as simple as: ```yaml - name: allow-api-requests action: ALLOW expression: all: - '"Accept" in headers' - 'headers["Accept"] == "application/json"' - 'path.startsWith("/api/")' ``` Or as complicated as: ```yaml - name: allow-git-clients action: ALLOW expression: all: - >- ( userAgent.startsWith("git/") || userAgent.contains("libgit") || userAgent.startsWith("go-git") || userAgent.startsWith("JGit/") || userAgent.startsWith("JGit-") ) - '"Git-Protocol" in headers' - headers["Git-Protocol"] == "version=2" ``` The docs have more information, but here's a tl;dr of the variables you have access to in expressions: | Name | Type | Explanation | Example | | :-------------- | :-------------------- | :---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :----------------------------------------------------------- | | `headers` | `map[string, string]` | The [headers](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Reference/Headers) of the request being processed. | `{"User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 Gecko/20100101 Firefox/137.0"}` | | `host` | `string` | The [HTTP hostname](https://web.dev/articles/url-parts#host) the request is targeted to. | `anubis.techaro.lol` | | `method` | `string` | The [HTTP method](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Reference/Methods) in the request being processed. | `GET`, `POST`, `DELETE`, etc. | | `path` | `string` | The [path](https://web.dev/articles/url-parts#pathname) of the request being processed. | `/`, `/api/memes/create` | | `query` | `map[string, string]` | The [query parameters](https://web.dev/articles/url-parts#query) of the request being processed. | `?foo=bar` -> `{"foo": "bar"}` | | `remoteAddress` | `string` | The IP address of the client. | `1.1.1.1` | | `userAgent` | `string` | The [`User-Agent`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Reference/Headers/User-Agent) string in the request being processed. | `Mozilla/5.0 Gecko/20100101 Firefox/137.0` | This will be made more elaborate in the future. Give me time. This is a [simple, lovable, and complete](https://longform.asmartbear.com/slc/) implementation of this feature so that administrators can get hacking ASAP. Other changes: - Use CSS variables to deduplicate styles - Fixed native packages not containing the stdlib and botPolicies.yaml - Change import syntax to allow multi-level imports - Changed the startup logging to use JSON formatting as all the other logs do. - Added the ability to do [expression matching with CEL](./admin/configuration/expressions.mdx) - Add a warning for clients that don't store cookies - Disable Open Graph passthrough by default ([#435](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/435)) - Clarify the license of the mascot images ([#442](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/442)) - Started Suppressing 'Context canceled' errors from http in the logs ([#446](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/446)) -

51bd058f · ·v1.16.0: Fordola rem Lupis > I want to make them pay! All of them! Everyone who ever mocked or looked down on me -- I want the power to make them pay! The following features are the "big ticket" items: - Added support for native Debian, Red Hat, and tarball packaging strategies including installation and use directions. - A prebaked tarball has been added, allowing distros to build Anubis like they could in v1.15.x. - The placeholder Anubis mascot has been replaced with a design by [CELPHASE](https://bsky.app/profile/celphase.bsky.social). - Verification page now shows hash rate and a progress bar for completion probability. - Added support for [OpenGraph tags](https://ogp.me/) when rendering the challenge page. This allows for social previews to be generated when sharing the challenge page on social media platforms ([#195](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/195)) - Added support for passing the ed25519 signing key in a file with `-ed25519-private-key-hex-file` or `ED25519_PRIVATE_KEY_HEX_FILE`. The other small fixes have been made: - Added a periodic cleanup routine for the decaymap that removes expired entries, ensuring stale data is properly pruned. - Added a no-store Cache-Control header to the challenge page - Hide the directory listings for Anubis' internal static content - Changed `--debug-x-real-ip-default` to `--use-remote-address`, getting the IP address from the request's socket address instead. - DroneBL lookups have been disabled by default - Static asset builds are now done on demand instead of the results being committed to source control - The Dockerfile has been removed as it is no longer in use - Developer documentation has been added to the docs site - Show more errors when some predictable challenge page errors happen ([#150](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/150)) - Added the `--debug-benchmark-js` flag for testing proof-of-work performance during development. - Use `TrimSuffix` instead of `TrimRight` on containerbuild - Fix the startup logs to correctly show the address and port the server is listening on - Add [LibreJS](https://www.gnu.org/software/librejs/) banner to Anubis JavaScript to allow LibreJS users to run the challenge - Added a wait with button continue + 30 second auto continue after 30s if you click "Why am I seeing this?" - Fixed a typo in the challenge page title. - Disabled running integration tests on Windows hosts due to it's reliance on posix features (see [#133](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/133#issuecomment-2764732309)). - Fixed minor typos - Added a Makefile to enable comfortable workflows for downstream packagers. - Added `zizmor` for GitHub Actions static analysis - Fixed most `zizmor` findings - Enabled Dependabot - Added an air config for autoreload support in development ([#195](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/195)) - Added an `--extract-resources` flag to extract static resources to a local folder. - Add noindex flag to all Anubis pages ([#227](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/227)). - Added `WEBMASTER_EMAIL` variable, if it is present then display that email address on error pages ([#235](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/235), [#115](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/115)) - Hash pinned all GitHub Actions

v1.15.1
f844fffd · ·Zenos yae Galvus: Echo 1 Fixes a recurrence of [CVE-2025-24369](https://github.com/Xe/x/security/advisories/GHSA-56w8-8ppj-2p4f) due to an incorrect logic change in a refactor. This allows an attacker to mint a valid access token by passing any SHA-256 hash instead of one that matches the proof-of-work test. This case has been added as a regression test. It was not when CVE-2025-24369 was released due to the project not having the maturity required to enable this kind of regression testing.

5ad44d77 · ·Livia sas Junius > Fail to do as my lord commands...and I will spare him the trouble of blocking you. - Add explanation of what Anubis is doing to the challenge page [#25](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/25) - Administrators can now define artificially hard challenges using the "slow" algorithm: ```json { "name": "generic-bot-catchall", "user_agent_regex": "(?i:bot|crawler)", "action": "CHALLENGE", "challenge": { "difficulty": 16, "report_as": 4, "algorithm": "slow" } } ``` This allows administrators to cause particularly malicious clients to use unreasonable amounts of CPU. The UI will also lie to the client about the difficulty. - Docker images now explicitly call `docker.io/library/<thing>` to increase compatibility with Podman et. al [#21](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/21) - Don't overflow the image when browser windows are small (eg. on phones) [#27](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/27) - Lower the default difficulty to 4 from 5 - Don't duplicate work across multiple threads [#36](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/36) - Documentation has been moved to https://anubis.techaro.lol/ with sources in docs/ - Removed several visible AI artifacts (e.g., 6 fingers) [#37](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/37) - [KagiBot](https://kagi.com/bot) is allowed through the filter [#44](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/44) - Fixed hang when navigator.hardwareConcurrency is undefined - Support Unix domain sockets [#45](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/45) - Allow filtering by remote addresses: ```json { "name": "qwantbot", "user_agent_regex": "\\+https\\:\\/\\/help\\.qwant\\.com/bot/", "action": "ALLOW", "remote_addresses": ["91.242.162.0/24"] } ``` This also works at an IP range level: ```json { "name": "internal-network", "action": "ALLOW", "remote_addresses": ["100.64.0.0/10"] } ``` -
